The agitation in the Dominion for COM
mercial union seems to proceed on the as
sumption that the United States is ready for
such policy, and is only waiting for Cara
da. Mr.. Erastus Wiman may have repre-
scented that such was the situation, but be
spoke without authority. The gift of the
markets of fifty millions of people for the
markets of five millions looks like excessive
generosity on the part of the fifty millions.
We do not believe that the Maine farmers
and fishermen are ready for such policy.

The La.lgtry Kiss.

Mrs. Langtry has invented a kiss
that according to The Chicago Null,
double discounts any thing of the kind
ever attempted by Emma Abbott. As
Lady Clancarty her husband escapes
from his pursuers: through all open
window into her room. She stands
with her back to the audience clear
down the stage, near the footlights.
The husband looks at her moment
and thenrushes wildly into her arms.
Then both swing around and expose
their protles to the audience. Then
they hold each other at arms length.
Then her bosom heaves and he pants.
Then her head falls upon his breast,
reclining backward. There is a Grim.
son blush su'insng her charming face.
Ttnl he looks down at her, and she
i'",k> up at him. Then there is a per.
- ''tlblc# pressure around the waist.
ZEN be suddenly places his lips to
.crs. Then she clasps him around the
head Then there is soft, gurgline
sound, as of water escaping from q
kitchen sink. Ten they are, as it
were, glued together. Then all is still.
Women in the audience become nerv-
ouy. Bald-headed men are :paralyzed.
Men around town have their watches
out timing them. One second, two.
three, four, five, six, seven and then
there is an explosion, as il the bung
had blown out of a beer barrel It is
all over. Il That is the Langtry kiss. b

Ben Butler, representing the Burton Car
company, addressed the interstate COM
mission: He reviewed the testimony in
respect to the damaged condition of stock
transported in the ordinary ear, declaring
that.the suffering of the animals produced
disease, which in turn affected the health
OF the consumer. The testimony showed
that the roads accepted every kind Of cars,
except what they choose to call the palace
cattle car. The testimony showed that
the respondents had disseminated against
the Burton conlstny. The interstate law
was only a slight shower. The next warn
ing the roads wotld get would be an ava
lanche. The point was made that the com
mission had 80 right to prescribe what
kind {of ca he railroads should use.
Judge Shellai,arger, representing the same
roads, arsued: While the Burton com.
pany Was not a common carrier, in it's
primary capacity, when it came as in this
complaint before the commission, repre-
senting that it's cars were accepted by 100
railroad companies, it came as common
carrier and was therefore the subject Of
the provision Of the Interstate law, which
relieved railroad companies from the neces-
sity ID furnishing tracks and terminal facili-
ties to their rivals. sss%% .s@.5 rsI. sa Z.

Romantic Story From a rmy life.
An army officer IS quoted as telling
g most romantic story Of a brother
officer, who graduated with him from
West Point many years ago. Shortly
@afterward this friend married pretty
girl and for ~ time things went
smo othly. but John Barley eorn, who.
has killed more soldiers than have
ever fallen 10 battle, got the best Of
him and he went to the d ogs rapidly.
( Finally he threw up his position IN the
army, deserted his young wife and for
years nothing was heard Of him At
last news came to the poor woman
that the worthless wretch was dead,
and after Il time she married anot her
officer and they moved out to his sta
ton at one Of the far Western posts.
In the meantime it seems that her
first husband was not dead, but, after
years OF debauchery and wandering,
reformed. Ele then began to make IN
quires for the woman he had deserted.
Nothing was KIN own OF her, and after
alongand RUTHLESS search he was forced
to the conclusion that she had given
up the struggle. He came to Wash
lngton, where, through the assistance
ofsome influential friends, he procured
an appointment in the army. Then
believing himself Tree he married again
and took his wife to the frontier post
to which he was ordered-the same at
which his first wife was living. The
meeting, the shock of mutual recogni-
ton, the deep shame OF the terrible
situation. is something to which no pen
can do justice. What were they to
do? The question has noty ct reached
a satisfactory settlement. ... ..
